(gentle music)
(upbeat orchestral music)
(mice laughing)
(crowd applauding)
- Oh!
- And plie, and
padebure, and finish.
(gentle piano music)
(gasps) Very beautiful.
Very beautiful, indeed.
- Oh, do we have
to stop Miss Lily?
I could dance for
the whole weekend.
- So could I, as
long as I could eat
at the same time. (laughs)
- You have to stop now darlings,
because I have a very
important announcement to make.
- An important announcement.
- I wonder what it could be.
- Next week, my
talented ballet class
will be putting on a
very special performance
at the Royal Palace.
- The Royal Palace!
- The production will
be devised, produced,
and performed entirely by you.
- By us?
- My little. (speaking
in foreign language)
- Oh Alice, I can't wait!
- Angelina-
- This is going
to be the most-
- I haven't quite finished.
- Sorry, Miss Lily.
- There's one more thing.
Queen Seraphina
has asked that you
Angelina should direct
this production.
(Angelina gasping)
- Goodness.
- Oh Angelina.
- I think I like the
first two things better.
- Oh, Miss Lilly.
I promise it will be the
best production ever.
Sorry, you have finished
now, haven't you?
- (laughs) I have.
Angelina, I have.
- Oh!
(Priscilla groaning)
- [Girls] Angelina.
- Isn't it wonderful
that Miss Lily
is letting you choose
the ballet, Angelina?
- And be in it.
- So, what about "Swan Lake?"
- Not princessy enough.
- "Cinderella?"
- (sigh) Not princessy at all.
Alice, we're going to perform
this at a real castle.
We need something
really princessy.
- Okay, keep your crown on.
How about "Sleeping Beauty?"
- (gasps) That's it, perfect.
Alice, it's the most
princessy of all the ballets,
and I've seen it times,
so I know it really well.
(Angelina singing)
Oh, wouldn't it be wonderful
to be a real princess?
They're always beautiful, always
talented and always right,
which is why I will be
playing Princess Aurora.
- Oh, you'll make such a
good princess, Angelina,
but doesn't the princess in
"Sleeping Beauty" sleep a lot?
- Well, that's the
biggest challenge of all,
Alice, to sleep like
a princess. (sighs)
(Alice laughing)
(both laughing)
- Not so princessy
now, Angelina.
(both laughing)
- So, as this is an All
Mouseling Production,
we will all have jobs to do,
as well as parts to play.
- I bet she gives us
some big, horrible jobs.
- William, you will
be Prince Charming
and will kiss
Princess Aurora awake.
(William laughing)
- Oh, William! (laughs)
- And help with the sets.
Alice, you will be
the Carnation fairy.
- Oh.
- [Angelina] And be
in charge of costumes.
- Lovely. (laughs)
- [Angelina] Felicity and Flora,
you will be the Lily Fairy
and Daisy Fairy, and
be in charge of makeup.
Henry, you will be a page boy.
Miss Quaver will be playing-
- Don't I get a job
as well, Angelina?
- I think there's enough for you
to do learning your part, Henry.
- Oh.
- Miss Quaver will
be playing the piano
and I will be directing
and playing the part
of Princess Aurora.
- Well, what a surprise,
Angelina gave herself
the main part.
- So, what are we then?
- Oh, sorry, I forgot.
Uh, oh, Penelope, you will be
the wicked fairy Carabosse,
and Priscilla, you
will be her ugly page.
- [Penelope] What?
- Ugly page?
- [Angelina] They're
the lead roles.
Your entrance will have
the most spectacular
special effect in
the whole show.
- Who's doing the special
effects, Angelina?
- Well, we don't
have anyone yet.
We need someone who can really
make things go with a bang.
(everyone yelling)
Honestly!
- Oh, what a mess.
- My cheesy bonbons.
- You should see
your faces! (laughs)
- Sammy Watts, I've got
one thing to say to you.
- [Sammy] What?
- How would you like to be
in charge of special effects?
- Wow!
- Bye bye.
Bye mommy.
- Bye mom.
- Did you pack my
princess shoes?
- Yes, dear.
- And my princess crown?
- Yes. (laughs)
- And my princess socks?
- Yes, Angelina. (laughs)
- Good luck, dear.
I'll see you on the big night
when I review the show
for the Mouseland Gazette.
- Don't worry, dad,
I'll be the best princess
you've ever reviewed.
- Come on, Angelina, or
we'll miss the train.
- Bye mom.
Bye dad.
Bye Polly.
- Bye Angelina.
(horn whistling)
- All aboard!
(whistle blowing)
(horn whistling)
(woman snoring)
- Oh, hello Miss Lilly!
- Ah, my little princess.
How are my students
getting on without me?
- Very well!
Oh, I mean terrible.
Oh, I mean-
- Oh, Angelina.
You're allowed to
get on without me.
- I know.
Queen Seraphina is
your best friend,
isn't she, Miss Lilly?
Like Alice is mine.
- Yes, she is, my little.
(speaking in foreign language)
You know, Queen Seraphina
was a very good dancer.
Actually, she was very
good at everything.
- Of course she was,
she was a princess.
(Miss Lilly laughing)
(horn whistling)
- When I get to the palace, I'm
going to go on a ghost hunt.
- Oh, there's no
such thing as ghosts,
you see a little
mouseling, Henry.
- Yes there is.
There are always
ghosts in castles.
- That sounds scary.
- You think that's scary?
I have to kiss Angelina.
- [Sammy] Yuck!
- How awful for you, William.
(girls giggling)
- Oh, look.
- What?
Where?
- Oh, look.
- [Alice] It's the palace!
- Wow!
- It's so beautiful.
- Let me see.
- Oi!
- I'm going to be
playing a real princess
in a real palace.
(gentle upbeat music)
(girls gasping)
Oh look.
Oh, oh Alice, look.
- [Henry] Wow!
- Angelina, this is the
biggest house I've ever seen.
- There must be loads
of ghosts living here.
- Whoa!
(wind blowing)
(Henry and Sammy laughing)
- Henry is so babyish.
- I bet Angelina gets
the biggest room.
(Angelina and Alice groaning)
- (gasps) Maybe he's the ghost!
- Come on, Henry.
(Henry gasping)
- I can't wait to
see our bedroom.
- Well, we never will if we wait
for Henry to look at all
these silly paintings.
(gasps) Oh look, Alice,
paintings of princesses.
- Oh! (laughs)
(Henry groaning)
- (gasps) Now he
looks really scary.
He's got to be the ghost.
(king coughing)
(Henry screaming)
You're him!
- Indeed I am, but I'm no ghost.
I'm the King of Mouseland.
How do you do?
- How do you do? (laughs)
- But if it's a ghost
you're looking for,
then here's your chap.
- Lord Stilton of Cheesebur-
- Cheesebrough, yeah.
Walks the corridors at
night, don't you know.
Most of the household
have seen him,
or heard his blood
curdling wail.
- Blood curdling wail!
- Yes, more cheese!
- (laughs) More cheese? (laughs)
And what about secret passages?
Mm-hmm, a palace must
have lots of those.
- Oh, no secret
passages that I know of,
but I can show you a very
unsecret suit of armor.
- Does anyone know where
I could set up my lab?
- Well, what is it for?
- Special effects.
You know, flashes, bangs,
smoke, that type of stuff.
- I know the very place.
Follow me.
(Sammy and William groaning)
- Lord Stilton of Cheesebrough.
(Henry gasping)
The eyes moved!
Sammy!
William!
The eyes moved!
- Not many mice come
down here, you know?
- Yes, I can understand why.
- Here we are.
- It's a dungeon!
- What?
Ah-ha!
It's brilliant!
Just right for my
experiments. (laughs)
- Oh Alice!
Isn't this the best room ever?
It makes me feel even
more like a princess.
Oh!
- (tuts) I wonder who
all these people are.
(gasps) Angelina,
did you see that?
- What?
- That lady's eyes just moved.
It's a ghost!
- Don't be silly, Alice.
There's no such thing as ghosts.
- (groans) There's a
lot to make, Angelina.
I'm not sure if I'll have time
to do the costumes and
play the Carnation Fairy.
- Alice, if I can direct
and play Princess Aurora,
then you can do two things too.
- (coughs) Sammy, have
you ever kissed a girl?
- Yuck, noway!
Pass the hammer please.
(William kissing)
William, are you all right?
- Oh, fine.
Er, I'm perfectly fine. (groans)
- Oh!
(wood clattering)
- Thank you Miss
Quaver. (coughs)
(gentle piano music)
And arabesque everyone.
And ready for our
grand entrance.
Alice.
- What, oh.
- [Angelina] And.
(fanfare music)
Oh!
- [Alice] It's Queen Seraphina.
- [Girls] Oh!
- Hello Angelina.
- Hello Val, I mean,
Princess Valentine.
- Welcome everyone
to the royal palace.
I hope you all have
a very pleasant stay.
- Thank you so much.
- Oh thank you.
- Thank you,
we will, I'm sure.
- Thank you.
- Thank you so much.
- May I speak with
you alone, Angelina?
- Oh, of course, your majesty.
Er, practice the
steps that lead up
to Princess Aurora's
entrance, everyone.
- Wee!
(William yelling)
- I was just wondering,
would there be parts
in the show for
Sophie and Valentine?
You see, it's always
been a dream of mine
to see my daughters performing
on stage, like I used to.
I know that that
could never happen
with my youngest,
Phoebe. (laughs)
She's such a tomboy.
(Phoebe blowing raspberries)
(William groaning)
But Sophie and Valentine-
- Of course, Queen Seraphina.
No problem at all.
I will make your dream
come true, I promise.
- Thank you so much, Angelina.
- Your majesty.
Um, no, no, no, no.
Princess Valentine
and Sophie, don't go.
There's been a change
in the casting.
- What's she talking about?
- I don't understand.
- Princess Sophie will be
playing the Carnation Fairy.
- Oh, thank goodness for that.
- And Valentine will
play Princess Aurora.
- What?
But I don't, I can't.
Aren't you playing
Princess Aurora, Angelina?
- It doesn't matter.
Directing real princesses
in a real palace
is much better than
playing a princess.
Now, this is your
grand entrance.
I know you don't
know the steps yet,
but just feel the music
and you'll be fine.
You come in from over here.
Henry is your page boy.
Henry, where are you?
- Sorry, Angelina.
I was looking for the ghost.
- Oh.
Thank you Miss Quaver.
And pointe, and pointe.
(gentle piano music)
And pointe, and pointe.
(princesses groaning)
And plie, and finish.
(princesses clattering)
(princesses sighing)
Oh dear, Alice.
- They're terrible.
- What have I done?
- Angelina, you have
just given two mouselings
the lead parts who can't
dance for cheesy toffee.
- They're princesses, Penelope.
Princesses are
good at everything.
They just need a bit of
rehearsal, that's all.
- A bit more than
a bit, I'd say.
- [Priscilla] Just
can't believe.
- [Penelope] Just typical.
- [Priscilla] Outrageous.
- Can I go ghost
hunting now, Angelina?
- Yes, Henry.
- We need to talk
to you, Angelina.
- Oh, if it's about the
dancing then don't worry.
There are lots of rehearsals.
- It's not about the dancing.
- Oh.
- No.
- It's about the costumes.
They need to be
bigger, frillier,
and lots more sparkly.
- Lots more sparkly.
(princesses huffing)
- Did you hear that, Alice?
- I most certainly did.
- Well, you'd better get it
done as quickly as possible.
They are real
princesses after all.
- Oh, they are real
princesses after all.
- Oh, Princess
Valentine, Sophie,
we need to sort out
some rehearsal time.
(Sammy groaning)
- Oh, what am I
going to do, Sammy?
- Well, you can start by pouring
the flash powder into that bowl.
- No, about the kissing.
It was scary enough
having to kiss Angelina,
but now I have to
kiss a real princess.
- I don't see what
difference it makes,
(laughs) except you might
bang into the crown.
- (screams) I hadn't
thought of that.
- Oh, the eyes aren't
moving at all now.
(door squeaking)
(gasps) What was that?
(Lord Stilton moaning)
What's that?
- [Lord Stilton] More cheese!
- Oh, it's Lord
Stilton! (laughs)
(spooky music)
(Henry laughing)
- [Lord Stilton] More cheese!
(Henry laughing)
More cheese!
(gentle upbeat music)
- Oh, and left, and right.
And left, and-
(Sophie groaning)
- Can we stop, please?
- Yes, can we stop, please?
- What is it?
- How are we supposed
to dance in these shoes?
They're so slippery!
- So slippery.
- Well, you could dip
them in some more resin
so they won't slip.
- [Valentine] Oh.
Oh.
- Oh.
- Thank you, Miss Quaver.
And left, and right.
- I can't!
I just can't.
- Neither can I.
- Ah, what's the matter?
- Um, these floorboards
are too creaky.
- Far too creaky.
- All right, um, let's
move over here then.
Is this okay?
(princesses groaning)
And thank you, Miss Quaver.
And.
- (coughs) Here
are the sandwiches
you wanted, Princess Valentine.
- Sandwiches, but it's
not even lunchtime!
- All this dancing is
making us very hungry.
- Very hungry.
Starving, in fact.
- Oh, okay.
- You can't keep
giving into them
just because they're princesses.
- [Valentine] There
are no napkins.
- I'm not.
I'm treating them just
the same as everyone else.
- [Sophie] No napkins!
- Will somebody get the
princesses some napkins?
Now, Alice, I think
you need to make
those dresses bigger, frillier
and more sparkly, don't you?
- Oh, for goodness sake.
No, I don't. (groans)
- [Lord Stilton] More cheese!
(Henry laughing)
(spooky music)
Aren't you frightened?
- No.
I really like ghosts.
- Oh, it's not fun if
you're not frightened.
- You're not a ghost!
You're Princess Phoebe.
Why are you pretending
to be a ghost?
- Cause it's really good fun.
I've been scaring
people for ages.
- (gasps) I'd really
like to scare people.
- I know, if you like ghosts,
why don't you help me?
Lord Stilton needs
to be a bit taller.
- Me, a ghost?
(gasps) Yes, please.
(William panting)
(hammer banging)
- There, that's
fixed the creaks.
- Are you sure, Angelina?
That one still looks creaky.
- Looks very creaky.
- (pants) Angelina,
wait 'til you see
my Carabosse special effect.
- Yes, yes.
Thank you, Sammy.
- Test that one over there.
(Angelina panting)
- Stand back, everyone.
- Oh, this is our entrance.
- The most spectacular
effect of the whole ballet.
- I'm sure I heard a creak.
- Back everyone.
Further back, and
yeah, okay fine.
Now, to demonstrate the
position of Carabosse
and her page, I have put two
very lifelike models
on the trap door.
(trapdoor banging)
- [Priscilla] Oh!
(models exploding)
That's supposed to be us?
- I don't like our
grand entrance.
- Angelina, what did you think?
- Of what?
- [Sammy] The special effect!
- (groans) I think it
needs to be bigger.
- Okay.
- (pants) Right, so the
floorboards don't creak.
We've made your dresses more
frilly and more sparkly.
Your shoes are covered in resin
and you've eaten
your sandwiches.
Can we please rehearse
the dance now?
(princesses groaning)
- Ah-ha!
I know.
- Yes?
- We're having a tiny problem.
You see, we don't
think it's fair
if only one of us
has the main part.
- No, not fair at all.
- So, we both want
the main part.
- But that's impossible!
There's only one
Sleeping Beauty.
- All you have to do
is rewrite the ballet,
all of it, have two princesses
and change the title
to "Sleeping Beauties."
Easy peasy.
- Yes, easy and peasy.
- But I can't do that.
- Oh dear.
- Oh dear.
- Oh dear what?
- Then we can't
be in the ballet.
- No, we can't be in the ballet.
- What?
But I promised.
- I'm sure mommy wouldn't want
just one of us to have the lead.
- No.
- Oh, oh all right.
I'll do it.
- You will?
I mean, you will?
That's good.
- (laughs) Very good.
- I can't believe it.
Why should I have to rewrite
the whole show for
those princesses?
Well, I'm not going to do it.
No, absolutely not.
(typewriter rattling)
The two Princess Auroras
make their entrance.
(gentle music)
(Henry moaning)
The princesses.
- [Henry] More cheese.
- Jete across the floor.
- [Henry] More cheese.
- Oh yes, here it is.
Padebure and then-
- [Henry] More cheese!
- Oh here, take it!
(table screeching)
(Henry and Phoebe screaming)
(Henry and Phoebe clattering)
What was that?
Oh.
The two princesses
glide gracefully.
(gentle music)
(hammer banging)
- Angelina.
- Oh, what now?
- Um, we need to ask
you about all the things
for this new ballet.
- Well, like what?
- Well, if there are
two Sleeping Beauties,
there will have to be two beds.
- And I'm going to have to make
another princess costume.
- Well, just do it.
- But Angelina, we're
running out of time.
- Okay then, I'll do it.
I'll do the bed and
the dress and the set.
Honestly.
(hammer banging)
- (coughs) Angelina.
- What is it now?
- What do you think
of our makeup?
- What makeup?
Felicity, Flora, you've only
given them one wart each.
They need to be uglier.
- But Angelina,
we've been so busy
doing sandwiches
for the princesses-
- Oh, I'll do it myself.
(girls groaning)
- [Penelope] This is ridiculous.
- I'll never get
this set finished.
There, completely ugly.
(Penelope and
Priscilla groaning)
(William groaning)
- Now I have to kiss
two Sleeping Beauties.
- I'll show her bigger.
Hand me the flash
powder, William.
- It's really scary.
(Sammy groaning)
- Look, William, I'm very busy.
Why don't you just go and
practice on something?
- Crumbs, practice,
on something?
- And one, and two, and turn,
and follow, and arabesque.
That's good.
Now, without me.
Two, three, four.
(princess groaning)
(princesses clattering)
- [Valentine] We can't do
it without you, Angelina.
- We really can't.
- Well, I'm not going to
be there on the night.
All you need to
do is concentrate.
And you, Henry.
- But they keep doing
different things.
- How dare you!
We do exactly the
same thing every time.
- Exactly the same.
- Yes, they do.
Exactly the same.
- But Angelina.
- [Alice] Badly.
- It's not fair.
It's not my fault.
- Oh, sorry Henry.
You're right.
Look, you go and play somewhere
and I'll go through it
with them a few more times.
Now, ready?
And one, two-
- Angelina!
My special effect is ready.
- [Angelina] Oh, well
okay, but hurry up.
- (laughs) Yeah, all right.
- Angelina, we need to
see that step again.
- Okay.
(metal clanking)
No, there's just too
much going on here.
Let's go somewhere else.
- Yes, somewhere else.
- Okay, okay.
- It had better be
grand this time.
(Sammy groaning)
(metal clunking)
(bags exploding)
(girls screaming)
- Well Angelina?
- What?
- Don't tell me, it
needs to be bigger.
- (groans) Bigger?
Yes, yes, whatever
you think, Sammy.
- (laughs) Okay.
- Bigger?
- [Priscilla] But, but, but.
(William groaning)
- Practice on something.
What can I practice on?
Excuse me.
- [Penelope And Priscilla] Yes?
- Crumbs.
Nothing, nothing.
(Penelope groaning)
(sighs) Practice, er.
(William humming)
(William yelling)
- [Phoebe] More cheese.
More cheese!
(Henry yelling)
(Phoebe laughing)
(Henry laughing)
- Scaring people
is fun! (laughs)
- We scared the tail
off him. (laughs)
- Right, and Carabosse,
draw the princesses
towards the spindle.
Um, William, William,
why does the spindle
look like a piece of old fence?
- [William] But you said you'd
make the spindle, Angelina.
- Carabosse, you're
supposed to draw them
towards the spindle.
- I don't know which
one to draw first.
- Which one of us
pricks our finger first?
- Ow!
- Valentine and then Sophie.
- Ow!
- Now you're drowsy
and twirl back
towards the bed,
and fall on the bed.
- Ow!
- Oh!
(princesses groaning)
- [Sophie] Oh no!
- What is it?
- It's these beds.
They're really uncomfortable.
- Really uncomfortable.
- And they're not big enough.
Nothing like our real beds.
How are we supposed to sleep
like princesses in those things?
- But they're pretend beds.
This is a ballet.
- Well, we can't
sleep in pretend beds
and that's that.
- That is that.
- Well, we can't do
anything about the beds.
There isn't time
to make new ones.
- Well then, we can't be.
- In the ballet.
(birds singing)
I can't believe I ever
wanted to be a princess.
Princesses are horrible.
They're not beautiful,
or talented,
and never right.
- Well, not those two
princesses anyway.
- Every night I lie awake
worrying about the ballet,
while those two are tucked up
in their big cozy
princessy beds.
Big cozy princessy beds.
(gentle music)
(groans) Left a bit.
Oh no, right a bit now.
- Angelina.
- Oh, no, no, not now, Alice.
- If I was a princess,
you wouldn't say that.
- How are we supposed to dance
with those great
big things on stage?
- Hey, my special effect
is supposed to go there.
- Well, I hope you've done
something about our beds.
(gasps) Those are our real beds.
- Our real beds.
- They certainly are,
so you can't
complain about them.
You wanted comfy beds,
and now you've got them.
So, there's nothing more to
complain about, is there Sophie?
- Um.
- Oh.
- Ah, I've got it!
- Huh?
- There's not enough
space to dance.
- Exactly, not enough
space to dance.
- That might be an improvement,
as far as those
two are concerned.
- Too right.
(Penelope and
Priscilla laughing)
- First time I ever
agree with a Pinkpaw.
- See. (groans)
Look.
- Yes.
Oh, oh!
(princesses panting)
- (groans) Princesses!
- Angelina, where are you going?
- I've had enough
of those princesses.
I'm going to tell Miss Lilly
I'm not doing the show.
- But you promised the queen.
- I don't care!
(Seraphina giggling)
Shh!
- [Seraphina] Oh Lilly.
- Listen.
- I'm so worried about
Valentine and Sophie.
It was so sweet of
Angelina to give them
such big roles, but
they're not used
to being on stage like I was.
Do you think they'll
be all right?
- Don't worry your whiskers
about it, Seraphina.
If anyone can turn Valentine
and Sophie into beautiful
dancers, Angelina can.
After all, I managed it for you.
(Seraphina laughing)
- Oh Lilly, you used
to shout and shout.
- I was just trying to
make you work harder.
- Did you hear that, Alice?
That's what I have to do.
- Are you sure, Angelina?
- Oh yes.
If that's what Miss Lilly did,
then I should do it too.
Make sure everyone's on
stage tomorrow morning,
eight o'clock sharp.
I've got some shouting to do.
- (laughs) I'm glad you realized
that shouting doesn't work.
- (gasps) I was a real terror.
(both laughing)
- Okay everyone, it's
no more miss nice mouse.
We're going to do a
really good rehearsal
and work really hard.
Alice, finish those
dresses, quickly!
William-
- Yes Angelina.
- Make a new spindle.
- But-
- No buts!
Sammy, I need that
special effect now,
and it better be big enough.
Priscilla, Penelope, go
down to the trap door.
- I don't really like
being shouted at.
- She's getting a bit too
big for her ballet shoes.
- Where are those princesses?
And where is Henry?
- Ready, Phoebe?
(helmet squeaking)
- [Phoebe] Ready.
- (sighs) Right, if she
wants big, she'll get big.
(chains rattling)
- [Phoebe] More cheese.
More cheese.
(Sammy screaming)
(Phoebe wailing)
(spooky music)
(Sammy screaming)
- [Henry] Oh no!
- [Phoebe] We're locked in.
(door banging)
- [Henry] Help!
- [Phoebe] Help!
- This is your big
entrance, princesses.
And cue princesses.
(princesses groaning)
Watch where you're going.
(princesses groaning)
- I've just locked a
ghost in the dungeon.
- Did he say anything
about cheese?
- Sammy, stop
talking to William!
It's time for
Carabosse's entrance.
- Oh yes. (groans)
Hey. (groans)
- Remember, you're at a ball.
Look happy!
- Oh, it's hard to be happy
when she keeps shouting at us.
- And cue Carabosse.
Sammy!
(Sammy groaning)
(b*mb exploding)
(everyone coughing)
- I can't see a thing!
- Sammy!
- It's not my fault.
You told me to make it bigger.
- There's soot
all over my dress.
- And mine.
(Priscilla coughing)
- (gasps) My costumes.
(wood creaking)
(wood clattering)
(dancers screaming)
- Oh crumbs.
- Now look what's happened!
William, that set was useless.
- That's your fault, Angelina.
- What?
- We've been doing our best,
but all you've been worrying
about are the princesses.
Well, we're fed up.
- So are we.
- Never thought I'd
agree with Alice.
- Now everyone, just be
quiet and start clearing up.
- No, we've had enough.
You can do the show with
your precious princesses.
(Angelina gasping)
- But, but you can't do this.
What will Miss Lilly say?
William?
- Come on William.
I'll show you a ghost.
(William yelling)
- Well, well now look
what you've done.
You've ruined the whole show.
- It wasn't us, and we will
not be spoken to like that,
will we, Sophie?
- We certainly will not.
- We've had enough too.
- We certainly have.
(princesses huffing)
- I've done everything
you wanted. (sobs)
(gentle piano music)
(Angelina crying)
It's no good.
I'm just going to have to
cancel the show. (sobs)
(Henry groaning)
- I can't do it, Phoebe.
It won't open.
- Look, there's the key.
Let's see if we can
reach it. (groans)
Oh.
- Oh, what are we going to do?
The show will be starting soon,
and I'll be in really
big trouble. (sobs)
- Oh don't worry, Henry.
We'll find a way.
(Henry crying)
(brick rattling)
(Phoebe and Henry screaming)
- I really did lock a ghost
in the dungeon, you'll see.
- Are you sure it's safe?
- (sniffs) How will I
ever face Miss Lilly?
(princesses crying)
Who's that?
- How could we have done
that to poor Angelina?
- Poor Angelina.
- Poor Angelina?
- [Princesses] (gasps) Angelina?
- Oh Angelina. (sobs)
We're so sorry.
- So sorry.
(princesses crying)
- We know we're not
very good dancers.
- Not very good at all.
- You do?
Well, oh!
(Valentine blowing)
- We're terrible, but
our mom really wanted
us to be in ballet,
and we couldn't
think of any other
way to get out of it.
- So we thought that
if we kept asking
for lots of difficult things-
- You'd get rid of us.
- But you never did.
(pots rattling)
- You wanted me
to get rid of you?
But why did you just tell me?
- When you're a
princess, Angelina,
everyone expects you to
be good at everything.
- Everything.
- Oh.
(princesses crying)
Oh come on.
Dry your eyes and
let's sit down.
(Sophie wailing)
(curtain ripping)
(table clattering)
(cups breaking)
(Valentine coughing)
Whoops.
(girls laughing)
- I know you really
wanted to play
Princess Aurora
yourself, Angelina.
- Yes, I did.
(gasps) Wait a minute.
(Sammy groaning)
- Behold the gruesome terror
that is the ghost
of Lord Stilton!
- It's empty, Sammy.
- What?
Where did it go?
- (gasps) Wow!
See, I knew there would be
a secret passage somewhere.
- Um, I wonder where we are.
Let's go this way.
(Henry laughing)
(gentle music)
- Well, that proves
it was a ghost.
- How?
- Well, ghosts can
walk through walls.
- Either that or it was
just your imagination.
- No, there was a ghost!
- Quick, there's a
meeting on the stage.
Angelina has an
announcement to make.
- Um (laughs), I owe
you all an apology.
I haven't been paying attention.
You were right,
Alice, I was spending
too much time with
the princesses.
- It was our fault and
we're really sorry.
- Really sorry.
- We're sorry too.
We shouldn't have stormed off.
- So, are we all going
to put on the best show
we can for Queen
Seraphina and Miss Lilly?
- [All] Yes!
- Right then, let's clear
this mess up and start again.
- Yes, no that's right.
- Alice, I need
to ask you a big favor.
(audience muttering)
(gentle music)
- An invitation to the palace,
this doesn't happen everyday.
- I wish it did.
- Oh, I've been so
looking forward to this.
- I'm sure it'll be marvelous.
(audience applauding)
- Good luck, Angelina.
- Oh, Angelina's going
to be so cross with me.
(gasps) Oh no, the
show has started.
- We could be lost
in here forever.
- I know, let's follow
the sound of the music.
(Phoebe gasping)
(Henry laughing)
(gentle upbeat music)
- Oh, it's nearly our entrance.
- I wish Angelina was here.
- [Angelina] I am!
(princesses gasping)
- Here come the elephants.
(gentle upbeat music)
Three sleeping beauties.
- We'd better go and
make our entrance.
- Priscilla, if they can
look beautiful, so can we.
(Priscilla groaning)
- (gasps) Three princesses.
I have to kiss three princesses.
(Sammy humming)
- It's going really well.
- Really well.
- Where's Henry?
- Valentine and Sophie
are dancing beautifully,
just like their mother used to.
- (laughs) They
are, aren't they?
I don't know why
I was so nervous.
- I knew Angelina could do it.
- Well, if she could get
my Phoebe on stage too,
I'd give her my crown. (laughs)
- (pants) Nearly there.
(Phoebe and Henry panting)
- [Penelope] Henry!
- Wait for me!
(Sammy groaning)
(Phoebe and Henry screaming)
(b*mb exploding)
(crowd cheering)
- Oh my goodness!
- (groans) I say.
- That's what I call
a special effect.
- Henry, we're on stage,
in front of lots
and lots of people.
I'm scared.
- Don't worry, Phoebe, copy me.
(gentle upbeat music)
(audience laughing)
(audience applauding)
(audience laughing)
- Was that my imagination
or was that Phoebe?
- It certainly was!
- And very good she was too.
Bravo!
(William grunting)
(gentle upbeat music)
(William kissing)
(William kissing)
(William kissing)
(audience cheering)
(audience applauding)
(dramatic orchestral music)
(audience applauding)
(audience cheering)
- Oh!
Oh.
(gasps) Oh!
Oh, thank you, Queen Seraphina.
- Thank you Angelina.
You really did make
my dream come true.
- (gasps) A crown, for me?
- It's the special one
I wear to the theater,
and it's yours.
Thank you for
keeping your promise.
I am so proud of all of you.
- And I am so proud
of you, Angelina.
- Jolly good show,
jolly good show indeed.
- Look Alice, I've got a crown.
- You look just like
a real princess.
- Oh!
(cutlery clanking)
- [Alice] Had a jolly good go.
- I really like
being a princess,
but I wouldn't like to
be one all the time.
- I'm glad I've
been in a ballet,
but I wouldn't like to
be in one ever again.
- I wouldn't mind.
- Really?
- Oh, ah, well maybe not.
- Well don't worry, next
time I put on a ballet,
I won't ask you.
(girls laughing)
- I did see a ghost.
I locked him in the dungeon.
Why won't you believe me?
- [Phoebe] More cheese!
- See, I told you
there was a ghost.
- [Phoebe] More cheese!
(Henry and Phoebe yelling)
(chains rattling)
(Henry and Phoebe laughing)
- Oh, (pants) more
cheese anyone? (laughs)
(everyone laughing)
(gentle music)
(gentle upbeat music)
